Cheap pot

· 🌡️ 73°F


I know what you are thinking, not that. These are really nice clay
pots at wegmans for 1.99.

Reptiles are where I draw the line

Watching the cook slide his greasy hands through the blackend fat
chunks of alligator to separate it from the meat made me want to make my own kind chunks.

The Church of the Ascension parking

· · 🌡️ 70°F

I guess the church people just have a love for parking on grass. Look
how much they already extended their strip of gravel by putting rocks
over the grass they ripped up parking on it. I wonder how far it's
gonna go. The more they park on the grass, the more torn up it gets,
the more of a parking lot they have.

Soon they will gravel over the whole thing. I mean look it's not even
a freakin straight line. The end is at a 15 degree angle into the
grass.

At least they have less cars than yesterday @paul #48965

When we first moved in they only had a 3.5 foots strip that they kept parking over. Now its a full 5-6 foot area. Notice only 3.5 foot of skirt is on their property which means they use ours or just drive over the grass.

The parking lot at the church

· · 🌡️ 68°F

Seriously, today the priest next store parked on the church's lawn.
Followed by other people. Just as I predicted before it looks like a parking lot through the window. Now they have two rows and are right over the lawn.

Who parks on a lawn? Are these people from the country or what? When the priest does it on dance camp day it really send the wrong message about parking etiquette. He always tries to tell me he is so against illegal parking, whatevs.

The frustrating part is they drive over our driveway to get there.

However, the ridiculous part is there is parking on the street.

Upside down photos from iphone 3.0 paste

· · 🌡️ 58°F

I was so excited that you could copy and paste more than one picture into an iphone 3.0 email. But unfortunately, they come out upside down.

In gmail, the thumbnail looks fine but the actual image is upside down. This only happens when the image is copied from my gallery and pasted into an email. Argh. Hopefully, they fix that before the real GM?

Quartz does interpret it properly but here is the image, directly transfered from the iphone, dragged to firefox. I image that will be a problem for a lot of people.

Twins birthdays

· 🌡️ 61°F


My dad and my uncle had their birthday today. Here they are with a
yummy Oreo cake. My mom also got cherries. It was the first of the
season. They were only $2.99/lb at tops. I wish we had a cherry tree
so bad. I would trade half the pears for cherries.
